The Garden.

Every farmer should give some attention
IN garden. Many farmers refuse to take
the trouble to make garden and the con-
sacuence is their families have to do without
vegetables. some money spent on garden
is not thrown away.
The garden should be divided into two
,,ortiens-one to be worked by horse Guilt
x,otor and plow, the other by shovel, hoe and
hand wedding. The portion to be titled by
hand should be the best land, free from
stones. r deep, strong loan, and provided
with means for watering in dry weather.
The portion to be titled by horses may be
noorer and will not so frequently need wa
tering, but if intended for growing celery,
strawberries and cauliflowers, will need
water to make these crops sure. The manure
for the whole garden is best applied by
spreading and blowing under; for peas,
heans corn and potatoes about eight cords
per acre will be enough if of good quality.
For early cabbages, onions, caulifiowers and
CELERY. about double this amount will be
little enough, and if the land has been neg
lected previously it will not grow good
crop of either onions, celery, lettuce or
greens until the second or third year of each
manuring. BY that time the manure gets
thoroughly mixed with the soil and cnriches
its whole mass as far as the roots go. This
cannot be done with poor land in one sea-
son.
The land planted with early peas and
beans should be made to carry late crop of
souashes or cucumber pickles.
Squashes and cucmnbers may also be
grown after crop of dandelions, spinach
or other early greens, and will succeed bet
ter than celery as a late crop if the land is
at all subject to suffer from drought. That
portion of the garden planted in sweet corn
may be made to carry turnips or spinach as
a second crop
Every one in making his plans for gar
dening will be guided largely by the de
mands of his family or the market he means
to supply as well as by the character of his
soil; and if he wishes to plant any new kind
with which he is not familiar he will do well
to consult some experienced gardener before
undertaking it, except as an experiment.
There are many details about the growing
of most crops est.a1G to success which are
too numerous to tsme here, but which will
suggest thenLsl~es readily to practical
man when cOnslls4Sa

LesDedeZa.

The New Orleans Pcdgtne says that it is
well known that sedge grass is in many places
in the South giving way to lespedeza, with
the prospect of the latter having full posses
sion in few years Lespedeza is an annual
and depends upon its seeds for the next crop.
These seeds drop in the fall and winter, take
root in the soil and terminate early in the
spring, sometimes in mild winters in Jan
uary and February, and their roots gradu-
ally penetrate the soil as warm weather pro-
crosses.
BY burning the dead sedge grass in March,
or earlier, the seeds are often destroyed and
tho young roots also that are confined to the
surface of the ground. If the sedge grass
is burnt at all it should be done in the sum
mer OF fall after the lespedeza has become
well rooted and after a recent rain and when
the grass roots ore wet. When well estab-
lshed in the summer cattle may nip lespe-
deza even with the surface of the soil, and
il will immediately start again for now

Spread of the Hog Cholera.

Every once in a while the announcement
Is made in some part of the South of the ex-
istence of hog cholera People whose hogs
are afflicted with the disease do not take the
trouble they ought to prevent its spread.
To some it is a mystery how the disease
spreads so rapidly Farmers who pay care.
full attention to the sanitary condition of
their swine are not exempt from this dis
ease, and it has been impossible to satisfac-
torily explain the sudden appearance of so
called hog cholera iE herds of swine appar-
entity healthy
A gentleman writing the State Depart
ment Of Agriculture advanced a theory that
the disease is spread over the country by
crows and other carrion eating birds 1t is
well known that swine will eat the flesh of
hogs that have died with disease, and the
statement of Mr.. Edwards, the writer of the
following letter, is worthy of some conside-
ration. He writes as follows:
A farmer Of my acquaintance in this 10
CAVITY informed me yesterday that while
picking corn at his home few days ago be
found three fragments of swine flesh in his
corn field on the ground. One fragment
was about the size of mans thumb; the
other two pieces were smaller. The appear
ance OF the three fragments indicated that
they had been torn-not cut-from the car
cass OF hog Now, as hog cholera prevails
70 an alarming extent in this neighborhood,
and crows abound in this locality, and the
SAID farmer noticed crows in their flight
crossing and recrossing over his field during
'ne day he found the fragments Of flesh, he
Is quite confident that these pieces of fresh
swine flesh were dropped by the crows.
1T would seem from the above that it is
very Important that all hogs dying from
nSease should be burned or buried immedi-
aueiy In order to prevent the disease from
oellg carried from one farIS to another by
crows and other hesh-eating birds."
Inc foregoing statement would seem to
demonstrate that it is possible and highly
PROBABLE that the dread scourge of hog
Cnoiera is frequently carried from place to
place by birds of prey.

Some of the Virtues of an Egg.

There are comparatively few people who
have an idea of the number of uses to which
an egg may be put. A writer in Woman
at Work calls attention to them For burns
and scalds nothing is more soothing than the
white of an egg, which may be poured over
the wound It is softer as varnish for a
burn than collodion, and being always at
hand can be applied 1t is also more cooling
than the sweet oil and cotton seed, which
was formerly supposed to be the surest APP
plication to allay smarting pain. 1t is the
contact with the air which gives the extreme
discomfort experienced from the ordinary
accident of this kind, and anything that
excludes the air and prevents inflammation
is the thing to be once applied. The egg is
considered one of the best of remedies for
dysentery. Beaten UP slightly, with or
without sugar, and swallowed at gulp, it
tends, by its emollient qualities, TO lessen the
Inflammation of the stomach and intestines,
and by forming a transient coating on these
organs, to enable nature to resume her
healthful sway over diseased body. Two,
or at most three, eggs per day would be all
that is required in ordinary cases; ard since
egg is not merely medicine but food as well,
the lighter the diet otherwise and the quieter
the patient is kept, the more and rapid the
recovery

THE BEST YET.

A sample of corn was left in the EAGLES
editorial rooms yesterday with the following
note
This is the best corn ever raised, and the
load that had brought to the city today
for use in the city is the best eyer saw. So
much for such dry year. Any one who
has any curiositysor wants a sample, can get
it by calling at l047 North Lawrence.
W. F. GEEEN.
Mr.. Green's bot tom farm just below the
city is ncted for producing magnificent
crops of corn, but owing to the exceedingly
dry season and his absence east for several
weeks, and consequently not being able to
look after the farm, mad concluded on his
return short time ago that it was not worth
while to go into the crop, supposing it had
shared the fate of the many reported ruined.
His surprise at finding such corn, therefore.
was no less complete than pleasant when he
ascertained what the crop viii husk out. He
is confident OF harvesting hundred bushels
per acre off the ninety acres planted. We
agree with Mr.. Green in his estimate Of the
quality of the corn, based upon the samples
left
